A.3.2 Planning for network sets

To enable servers to connect any Ethernet production network or test network without having to specify an individual network name, and to provision additional networks of these types without being required to change the configuration for every server, this data center requires network sets for these networks:

Production networksDevelopment networksTest networksA.3.3 Planning for users and roles

The Administrator user ID, which has full access and privileges on the appliance, can perform all configuration steps.

The appliance provides RBAC (role-based access control), which enables an administrator to quickly establish authentication and authorization for users based on their responsibilities for specific resources. Users can view only the resources for which they are authorized, and they can initiate actions only for the resources for which they are authorized.

The appliance also provides SSO (single sign-on) for the server iLO and the enclosure Onboard Administrator. The appliance roles are mapped to the appropriate role for the iLO or Onboard Administrator.

“Understanding the security features of the appliance” (page 45) describes controlling access for authorized users. The online help lists the minimum required privileges for each task and resource.

For the sample data center, assume that all tasks are performed by a user with Infrastructure administrator privileges, such as the Administrator user.
